Lyrics On the Floor - Initial Talk Remix - Perfume Genius , Initial Talk

I-I-I-I
I-I-I-I

I'm trying, but still, I close my eyes
The dreaming, bringing his face to mine
(Lock the door)
Constant buzzing all through the night
The fighting rips me all up inside
(On the floor)

I pace, I run my mouth
I pray and wait
I cross out his name on the page

(How long 'til) This washes away?
(How long 'til) My body is safe?
(How long 'til) I walk in the light?
(How long 'til) This heart isn't mine?

The rise and fall of his chest on me
I'm trying, but still, it's all I see
The violent current of energy
I hide it away and underneath
(Lock the door)

I shake
I promise every day to change
I cross out his name on the page

(How long 'til) This washes away?
(How long 'til) My body is safe?
(How long 'til) I walk in the light?
(How long 'til) This heart isn't mine?

Take this wildness away, ah
And away, ah
And away, ah

I'm trying, but still, I close my eyes
The dreaming, bringing his face to mine
(Out the door)

I pace, I run my mouth
I pray to change
I cross out his name on the page

(How long 'til) This washes away?
(How long 'til) My body is safe?
(How long 'til) This heart isn't mine?

I-I-I-I just want him in my arms, hey
I-I-I-I
I-I-I-I
